The Take Home

In this bonus episode of The Take Home, I have the good fortune to speak with Dr. Danny J. Anderson (@TU_President19), Trinity University's19th President. During our conversation he describes what attracted him to Trinity (@Trinity_U), why being genuinely curious is important for leaders, and the concept of Above the Line vs. Below the Line leadership. Dr. Anderson also details the lessons he's learned as a university president, his thoughts on Trinity's future, and why intercollegiate athletics are important to the mission and outcomes for elite, private liberal arts institutions It was a privilege and joy to have Dr. Anderson on a guest a few weeks before he retires from a long and distinguished career in higher education. I hope you enjoy hearing his perspective on life, education, and leadership. Send me your thoughts and let's keep the conversation going on Twitter (@TingleJK) or on LinkedIn. ----- The first segment of each episode is geared specifically for his students and features a brief lecture on course readings, much of which is from the 9th edition of "Leadership: Theory and Practice" by Peter G. Northouse. The second segment is great for students and anyone else interested in the relationship between sports and leadership. The Rapid-Fire Interview segment which features a conversation between Jacob and brings the leadership theories to life and aims to give listeners a peek behind the curtain of being a leader in the dynamic sports biz. The intro music is "Be My Guest" by Crowander. "My underground" by Distemper is the closing credits music. The music during the Rapid-Fire segment is "Epic Cinematic" by Scott Holmes Music. The podcast cover photo was taken by Jacob near a housing estate in WC1, London, England.
